One Less Thing to Worry About

We’ve all heard how bad TV is for our kids, and received the snarky lectures over the damage it can do to their precious growing brains.

But pick up your remote and do a cheer, one damning piece of evidence has fallen by the wayside. Two new studies suggest no link between television exposure and ADD. This is in contrast to an earlier study that suggested even one extra hour of TV a day was enough to increase risk of developing concentration problems by 10%.

All parents can now breathe a sigh of relief and stop lying awake at night feeling guilty over Elmo.

We have watched A Bug's Life 3 days in a row. I think we are cramming before it is due back at the library.
